Jason is going again this year. Last year was his first year and I was very worried that he wouldn't want to stay, but he had a great time. He is excited to go again this year! It was such a great experience for him.

My son is going for the first time this year! I finally finished the application! That was a lot of work!!! I am a little nervous sending him but I think it's time for him to meet some other boys dealing with the same things!

Hi my name is Carol Greathouse i have a son named Matthew who is 12 and has DMD. We live in Centerville Ohio (South of Dayton). We go to Dr. Kissel at the OSU MDA Clinic. He is a huge Columbus Bluejackets and OSU Buckeye fan.

Hi my name is Nicole i have a son named Greg whos 15. He was diagnosed when he was 5. I live in Toledo Ohio. I would like to try to have a run for our sons in Toledo in the summer time...if anyone knows how I can get that started please let me know....Thanks

I am Leslie Guzman. I have 3 sons, my oldest (who is 3) has DMD. My other two sons (2 yr, 5 months are healthy). Diego has deletion 48-52. (Exon Skipping 53). What about having an informal join up, we can include the kids. I live in Cincinnati (Madeira). I can offer my house if someone would live to help organizing the date / time etc.. I think it would be great! What do you think?

Hi, I am Sue Mahlock, my son Bill has Becker MD and I live in West Chester, Ohio. I also work for Pat Furlong. She asked me to get back to you in response to your question about whether PPMD is in the Ohio State Employees Charitable Campaign. Unfortunately, for Ohio's program, you must be a federation or a member of a federation to be on their campaign list. We are not a member of a federation at this point. That is a whole process and expense. There is a chance we may be a member some time in the future but we will keep you posted on our PPMD website. BY the way, are you registered with PPMD's regular website? For some reason I could not look you up there.
Best to you(your little guy is cute!)

Hello others here in the Buckeye State. Our son is 6 and was diagnosed January 2008 with deletion of 45-52, out of frame. We go to both Nationwide Children's in Columbus and to Dr. Wong at Cincinnati Children's. Michelle
